The Subversion repository now checks that there are no problems with  
case-insensitive file systems (based on the case-insensitive.py pre- 
commit hook). So committing "Jamfile" is file, but a commit of  
"JamFile" when there is already a "Jamfile" will be rejected.

We also now reject commits containing filenames with > 31 characters.
